"Got tight last night on absinthe and did knife tricks. Great success shooting the knife into the piano. The woodworms are so bad and eat hell out of all furniture that you can always claim the woodworms did it."

Last 3 peaks of the High FiveClimbed as the final 3 peaks on the High Five traverse. Enjoyed West and Middle Como, but East proved to be a tedious and challenging end to the day that was more exposed and challenging than expected. Ended up bushwhacking down the lower cliffs and descending/rappelling in the dark which made for quite the epic.

long day...Combined with El Capitan and the Lonesome Bachelor for a five peak traverse in under 24-hours. Great experience, not sure if I'll repeat it though.

West and MiddleFour of us made it up these two on this nice spring day. Original plan was to hit the east one too, but a bum knee and clouds moving in sent us glissading down after the Middle one was done. Great spring climbing area!

Reconnoiter OnlyI was successful in that I reached my goal, the Middle-West Saddle. It was a really tough day but I lived to tell about it. See my trip report Unanticipated Delerium
